There were three warnings. Keep them out of light, especially sunlight. Don't ever get them wet. Keep them away from water. But the most important thing, the thing you must never forget . . . no matter how much they cry, no matter how much they beg never, never feed them after midnight.”
You try to find your friend Dr. Paul Jamison, who disappeared mysteriously in the deep jungles of Peru while he tried to unearth the last secrets of the Inca. A note and a golden brooch are all the hints he left to you.
Based on the famous novel by L. Frank Baum, The Wizard of Oz places the player in the role of Dorothy Gale, who is transported by a cyclone to the magical world of Oz. Accompanied by her dog Toto, a Scarecrow, a Tin Woodman, and a Lion, she tries to find her way to the Emerald City, where she hopes the Wizard of Oz can help her find a way back home.

You play the young warlock Damiano Delstrego who tries to find a sacred stone which contains the secret of life which will be needed to thwart Luficer's plans to destroy your home city Partestrada.
